Wednesday, September 14, 2022 • 18 Elul 5782
7:00 PM - 9:00 PMBeth El Temple, 2626 Albany Avenue, West Hartford, CT 06117Women's Network of Beth El Temple & The Emanuel Sisterhood invite you to a book discussion with author & Beth El member Marilyn Simon Rothstein!
The latest from Marilyn Simon Rothstein, the riotously funny author of Husbands and Other Sharp Objects and Lift and Separate, takes readers on the journey of Lauren Leo, a forever dieting 41-year-old who is finally about to get married … until she’s dumped at the altar via text message. What happens next forces Lauren on a road to healing and self-acceptance, but only if she can deal with her mother’s advice to freeze her eggs and stay slim, or her older sister, a flamboyant actress, hanging out on her couch. Filled with hilarious mishaps, dysfunctional family drama, and happy accidents that lead to love, Crazy to Leave You delivers a heroine readers will root for and an inspiring tale of second chances.
You can now buy the book at Beth El Temple for just $15!
